When You Just Think 'I Don't Get It'

End of season, nothing really to discuss about football so...

Off topic from footie completely. Here are a list of things or popular figures in past/present music/comedy/culture that I just don't get. In no order:

1) The Catherine Tate Show. Not funny at all.

2) The Stone Roses. They've released two albums ffs. One was loved, the other not so. Why are they so popular?? Their catalogue is quite bare.

3) Quentin Tarantino. His films are mostly just rubbish. Django is awful. Sorry but it's true and he's a weirdo.

4) James Corden. Talentless.

5) Reality TV. Embarrassing nonsense. Should be shown to kids as anti-STI videos... 'how not to catch X'

6) Marvel Cinematic Universe. This is bordering on being a scam that takes advantage of young children and poor families. It seems like every other month there's a new superhero movie out, with an arsenal of new toys that the unemployed, single mother has to buy from Very, with very very high interest indeed.

Feel free to add yours on and why!

He's not in the least funny, just rehashes old jokes in his greasy, horrible style.

I live just 11Km from where they film Love Island. Never wanted to tune in.

Caught five mins of it last night whilst channel-hopping. What can one say? Perhaps only hope that they all get Covid.

And UK TV sucks. There is absolutely nothing to watch now that football and tennis has finished.

This is NOT what I don't pay my TV licence fee for!

Harrumph!

Delusional article bar point 2, never understood why they are so popular. Had one good song.

So many positive things to take out of this article:

1) People who regularly disagree with me on football actually finding they have things in common with me like Irish Red and many more

2) Engaging other users to find out what else they don’t quite ‘get’

3) People realising MCU is a scam

Some negatives too, unfortunately; people still trying to bully and abuse me by calling me delusional and making threats against me.

What could have been a great, eye opening article has been slightly tainted by bullies.

That's not fair, Paul.

Jeremy Corbyn speaks VERY highly of you.

Culer disagrees so he deletes my post

I think I’ll add attention seeking wums to the list.

Nah Boris the reason it was removed is because it insulted another user. Under house rules I have to regulate my own articles and ensure no boundaries or lines are crossed. Your comment went too far.
